After verification, you can create the API keys for WiPay.

Firstly navigate to your WiPay account dashboard. After that, go to the “Developer” section of your profile by clicking on your account’s profile picture at the top-right corner of the screen.

In case, if you do not see the “developer” option, then make sure that you have a verified business account.

After clicking on the “developer” option, you will land on the new page. Here, you will need to enter your website URL to get your API keys.

Now, click the “submit” button after adding the URL. On submitting the website URL, API keys will appear on your screen.

After getting the API keys, you can now proceed to configure the module. In the configuration settings, there are various options. Let’s discuss them all one by one.

• Payment Mode: Select whether you want to use this module in test or live mode.
• WiPay Account ID: Enter the account ID of your WiPay business account.
• API Key: Enter the API key that you generated on the WiPay website.
• Country Code: Select the country code for the country in which your account is registered.

The module allows you to select the following options under fee structure. Let’s understand their significance one by one.

• Customer Pay: This means that your customer will pay the payment gateway charges.
• Merchant Absorb: On selecting this option, merchant(admin) will pay the payment gateway charges.
• Split: In this case, admin will pay the half & customer will also pay the half of the payment gateway charges.

So, this was all about the process to configure the module.

After configuring the module successfully, customers will get the option to pay using WiPay Payment.

Now, as you can see a new option i.e., Pay by WiPay Payment Gateway is now available to the customers.

On the WiPay payment page, a customer needs to enter the credit card details in order to proceed. You might notice that the amount is different from the checkout page.

This is because of the payment gateway charges. Currently, as per the configuration settings, a customer will bear the extra payment gateway charges.

So, the amount on the WiPay Payment page is different from what the customer saw on the checkout page.

After the payment is successful, the order will confirm.

After the installation of the module, a new tab named “WiPay Transactions” adds to the admin dashboard.

Under the “WiPay Transactions” tab, the list of all the WiPay transactions is available. On clicking the “view” button available against each entry, you will land on the admin order details page.
